In some plants, the pistils don’t Form until a few days after the stamens do.How might this keep a plant from self pollinating

Physics

KATRIN_1 [288]3 years ago

For a flower to be pollinated, pollen from an anther (which is located at the top of the stamen) needs to reach a stigma (at the top of the pistle.) Some plants are genetically capable of pollinating themselves if their own pollen reaches their own stigma; some plants are not capable of self pollination under any circumstances.

For plants that can genetically self pollinate, but would prefer not to, they can avoid this by having their pistil and pollen/stamens mature at different times. If the stamens mature first, the pollen will be dispersed by animals or wind or whatever dispersal mechanism it relies on. Then by the time the pistil is ready to be pollinated, there is no pollen left in that flower to land on the stigma.

A 60 kg pupil runs for 600m in 1 minute uniformly calculate kinetic energy​
AURORKA [14]

velocity = traveled distance ÷ time of the traveled distance is seconds

velocity = 600 ÷ 60

velocity = 10 m/s

_________________________________

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × ( velocity )^2

KE = 1/2 × 60 × ( 10 )^2

KE = 30 × 100

KE = 3000 j

Line segment gj is a diameter of circle l. angle k measures (4x 6)°. circle l is inscribed with triangle g j k. line segment g j
choli [55]

The value of x in the given right triangle in a semicircle is determined as 21.

<h3>What is the measure of a triangle in a semicircle?</h3>

The triangle in a semicircle is always a right angle triangle.

From the figure shown, we can say that the triangle  G J K is right triangle and m<K = 90degrees.

Given that m<K = 4x + 6, we will can use the following equation to find the value of x as shown:

4x + 6 = 90

4x = 90 - 6

4x = 84

x = 21

Thus, the value of x in the given right triangle in a semicircle is determined as 21.

a brick is suspended above the ground at a height of 6.6 m. it has a mass of 5.3 kg. what is the potential energy of the brick
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The formula for potential energy is
E(p) = mgh

(Mass x gravity x height)

Therefore energy = (5.3)(9.8)(6.6)
= 342.8 J

How did I get 9.8?
9.8 is the constant for gravity

A 3.50 cm tall object is held 24.8 cm from a lens of focal length 16.0 cm. What is the image height?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

<h2>6.36 cm</h2>

Explanation:

Using the formula to first get the image distance

1/f = 1/u+1/v

f = focal length of the lens

u = object distance

v = image distance

Given f = 16.0 cm, u = 24.8 cm

1/v = 1/16 - 1/24.8

1/v = 0.0625-0.04032

1/v = 0.02218

v = 1/0.02218

v = 45.09 cm

To get the image height, we will us the magnification formula.

Mag = v/u = Hi/H

Hi = image height = ?

H = object height = 3.50 cm

45.09/24.8 = Hi/3.50

Hi = (45.09*3.50)/24.8

Hi = 6.36 cm

The image height is 6.36 cm
